4.2 Selecting an Analog or non-decoder locomotive
A locomotive without a DCC decoder is called an Analog locomotive and is
run on address 0000. While an analog locomotive, with no decoder, is sitting
still on your digital layout, you will hear a “singing” sound. Once the analog
locomotive is moving, this sound will change and be less noticeable. To avoid
heat build up in your locos without decoders, Digitrax recommends that analog
locos
NOT
be left sitting on DCC powered track for long periods of time when
they are not running.
4.3 Additional address menus
In address selection mode, press the menu
key to bring up 5 new numeric soft keys and
associated additional address menu tasks as
shown. The display you see may be slightly
different from that shown to the right, depend
-
ing on exactly the history of address selections
for your system.
4.3.1 Select a prior address using
RECALL soft key
In loco selection mode with the menu key
pressed, the key is now a soft key showing
address “Recall” choice. Press this key to
bring up the non-volatile list of the last 6
unique addresses used on this UT6
When in Recall Session Loco List screen,
pressing a 0-5 numeric key with the address to
the right will enter that number as the selection
address For example if you press the 5 key
for the recall screen shown to the right, then the address 1000 will be entered
as the recall selection address. The selection screen will go back with this num-
ber and then pressing
will complete the selection of address 1000.
4.4 Releasing an address from a throttle
When you are finished running a locomotive address, it is best practice to
release it from your throttle, so that it is available for other throttles to select
and run.
1. Use the
Throttle Knob
to make the locomotive’s speed zero (this option-
al step is strongly recommended as the loco will continue to move after
released if speed is not zero).
2. Press the
key to go into locomotive select mode.
